'''Matrix model''' may refer to:
 
* a model using a [[Matrix (mathematics)|matrix]] in mathematics
== Mathematics and physics ==
* [[Matrix models (physics)]], a simplified quantum gauge theory and related mathematical techniques used to study a wide range of topics in theoretical and mathematical physics
* [[Matrix theory (physics)]], a quantum mechanical model
* [[Matrix population models]], area usedtype toof population model wildlifethat anduses human populationmatrix dynamics.algebra
* [[Matrix management]], an organizational structure
 
==See also==
* In [[theoretical physics]], a '''matrix model''' is a system (usually a [[quantum mechanics|quantum mechanical]] system) with [[matrix (math)|matrix]]-valued [[physical quantity|physical quantities]]. See, for example, [[Lax pair]].
* [[Matrix (disambiguation)]]
 
* A concept from [[Algebraic logic]].
* The "old" matrix models are relevant for [[string theory]] in two [[spacetime]] dimensions. The "new" matrix model is a synonym for [[Matrix theory (physics)|Matrix theory]].
* [[Complete graph]]
* A concept from [[Algebraic logic]].
* [[Lax pair]]
 
* [[String theory]]
== Biomedicine ==
 
* [[Matrix population models]] are used to model wildlife and human population dynamics.
 
* [[The_Matrix_Model|The Matrix Model]] of substance abuse treatment is a model developed by the Matrix Institute on Addictions in the 1980s to treat [[cocaine]] and [[methamphetamine]] addiction.
 
* Protein complexes: A matrix model of protein complexes (unrealistically) predicts that all proteins in a complex interact with all other proteins. Mathematically, a matrix model of a protein complex is a [[complete graph]].
 
== Management and economics ==
 
* The term "Matrix model" is used to describe [[Matrix management]] where each worker in an organisation has two managers, one "functional": managing their expertise, the other "executive": managing their work on an a project.
